Re: Has your GYN doctor ever told you this?

GYN always said it was no good. It gets rid of the good bacteria you need in there!

Re: Has your GYN doctor ever told you this?

Never.
It's very bad for you and can actually lead to more yeast infections etc by flushing out all the good bacteria that kill the yeast down there....

I was never told one way or the other, but I've read that it is not good for you, and I have never done it.

OK, I am in the never done it, never will do it category...

But I guess my question is this... if it's so bad for you, and so many ladies say they would never do it, how are the douche companies still in business? Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

(but then again, cigarette companies are still in business so there must be people out there who douche!)



This is an EXCELLENT POINT. How in the world are the makers of Massengill and Summer's Eve STILL IN BUSINESS? Chat Icon

I never did. My gyno years ago told me not to. He said it wasn't good for your body.



Agreed...

i was told it can actualyl alter the chemistry down there and give you an infection or cause dryness.
